Calculated size of floppy disk to hold the data is 1.47 MB while the actual size of it is 1.44 MB the difference is of 0.03 MB for what purpose do you use 0.03 MB?
Floppy disks often have two capacity specifications; they are often quoted with both their unformatted capacity, and their formatted capacity. Since the disk is useless unless it is formatted the unformatted capacity means basically nothing. The formatted capacity is the true maximum capacity of the disk. Usually, the formatted capacity is about three-quarters the unformatted capacity. Even the formatted capacity, however, doesn't show the true amount of space available for user files, because a certain amount of overhead is taken up for FAT file structures. This is true of hard disks as well, of course, although as a percentage more of the floppy is taken up by this information than a hard disk is. The amount of space remaining after these structures are placed on the disk is the true usable capacity of the floppy. Note also that the "decimal vs. binary" measurements problem is in play again with the terminology used to specify floppy capacity. In fact, the terms are not even consistent in and of themselves. For example, a 1.44 MB floppy disk takes its name from the fact that the disk has 2,880 sectors, and each sector is 0.5 KB; 0.5 times 2,880 is 1,440, so the 1.44 is a decimal measure. But, each sector is really 512 bytes, so the 0.5 KB is a binary measure. As a result the "1.44" is a mixed measurement; the true raw formatted capacity is either 1.41 MB (binary) or 1.47 MB (decimal), and not 1.44 MB at all!

How do you put an Email on a floppy disk?

Floppy disk can hold 1.47Mb of data while the actual capacity to hold data is 1.44Mb difference is 03 mb explain why?
The difference in size is often from firmware and other software that is required for the device to store data. This is even seen on USB devices as well.
How are floppy drives formatted?
